I rented this in support of Ray Liotta, and despite hardly being in it, except for the beginning and the ending, he's the best part of the whole thing.
That being said, this is up there in my list of worst movies ever.
It reminded me of a low-budget feature that you would find written by some dummy on SS. Something everyone would shred to pieces in reviews....
Limited number of locations, small cast, nothing really going on. At all.
Boring beyond belief, it's a total mess. The film is all over the place and makes no sense. Even the best part of the movie - Ray Liotta's character - has no point to the story at all. He goes to save our protag - even has an epic, brutal battle with 2 cartel guys in a kitchen - and that's it, that's how we leave him. No conclusion, no nothing. It's almost as if the scene was thrown in there because they knew this was a major, boring fucking film.
The ending is so abrupt and out of nowhere, it's mind-blowingly stupid.
I'm not one to make review threads (or threads at all) but I have to save you guys from wasting 98 minutes of your life.
Do not see The Devil's in the Details.
